United States Ambassador Nikki Haley issued a brilliant response to those wanting to debate the large-scale missile launch into Syrian airfields carried out by the U.S.

She’s calling for an open forum — so that those who want to defend the atrocities of the Assad regime must do so in front of the entire world.

Here’s what her statement said:

“This morning, Bolivia requested an emergency UN Security Council meeting to discuss the events in Syria. It asked for the discussion to be held in closed session. The United States, as present of the Council this month, decided the session would be held in the open. Any country that chooses to defend the atrocities of the Syrian regime will have to do so in full public view, for all the world to hear.”

The U.S. is no longer going to be a pushover — it’s going to exert its power for good and promote peace through strength.
